Product Description

Feel the tropical tastes of Goa from the first whiff and taste of this masterfully crafted Indian Single Malt mastured in selectively chosen cask profiles. Notes of barley show early. A bourbon manuka honey-liqourice mix forms an attractive spine with toasted honeycomb arriving somewhere in the middle unexpectedly. This is as tropical as it gets.

What critics and judges wrote

Whisky Advocate · Jonny McCormick · 2024
Aromas of stewed fruit, bran muffins, and apple peel greet the nose … At cask strength, it’s a warming dram with apple pie, cinnamon, honey, and chocolate. … The finish is lengthy, with spiced fruits.

Sticky, spiced-coconut desserts, grapefruit, clove, allspice, and crispy bacon on the nose of this NAS whisky matured in bourbon casks. … It doesn't need much water, but it's eminently better with a dash.
Distiller · Davin De Kergommeaux
An odd sweetness seems almost like vanilla cake-icing … and lead us to hope a longer-aged version will be released to bring what is a fairly simple whisky to the complexity its flavor profile predicts.

World Whiskies Awards judges · Gold · 2021
The nose is very vegetal with some horseradish spice notes coming through. The palate has an interesting depth, with mint and coconut, then herbal notes in to the finish.

Salt and pepper on freshly cooked chips on the nose with a raspberry coulis on the side for dipping. Sweet and homely on the palate. Wood dust and fruits. Almost friendly. A comforting dram.

Flavor scores are our estimates. A flavor scores higher when more critics mention it and when they describe it more strongly, so no single review sets the result. They are not a rating from any publication.
